English Abstract In order to check the EG-sorption/desorption test for
new chemicals which is in preparation, an international ringtest was carried
out. This report deals with our results. The sorption/desorption test was
carried out for the chemicals atrazine and lindane, in three different soil
types. The proposed test seems to be valuable in order to get some
information about sorption/desorption behaviour of new chemicals in soil.
Several improvements for the proposed test are
suggested.
